Five questions for Brennan from @emptywheel, who's been all over targeted killing white paper story: http://www.emptywheel.net/2013/02/07/five-questions-for-john-brennan/ …
@DariMD We have dead civilian bodies. We don't need the classified information access.

@emptywheel Dead civilians? Do you mean Collateral damage from drone strikes? -
@DariMD Actually, in some cases we have dead civilians from strikes at targets launched on bad intelligence. -
@emptywheel How do you know it was "bad intelligence"? Curious what you would suggest for Drones Program? -
@DariMD In multiple cases anon sources announced we had killed named terrorist when we ended up killing non-terrorist enemy of ISI or Saleh. -
@emptywheel Does "anon" sources stand for anonymous ? If so, how is that intelligence? -
@DariMD I'm not saying you can or law requires you avoid all CivCas, but by lying abt it Brennan prevents real debate abt impact of them. -
@emptywheel Biggest challenge is this "war on terrorism" unlike any other war b/c it is not an "official act of war". -
@DariMD At this point, biggest challenge is getting country to redeploy resources to much bigger threats facing the country. - 4 more replies
